Default Does VB have SYMBOLIC CONSTANTS similar to C/C++

No, afraid it doesn't. But this may be enough for you

Dim AAA As Range

Sub Main
Set AAA = sheet4.cells(35,6)
...
SomeSub
...
End Sub

Sub SomeSub()
AAA = "xyz"
End Sub

Is there anything in Visual Basic that is similar to SYMBOLIC CONSTANTS as
used in the C Language. For Example, in C:

#define AAA sheet4.cells(35,6)

Sub SomeSub()

AAA = "xyz"

end sub

The compiler encounters the "#define" directive and thereafter replaces

all
occurrences of "AAA" with "sheet4.cells(35,6)". So it then ends up

compiling
the statement:

sheet4.cells(35,6) = "xyz"
